Tupperware and Ziploc bags for flavor

I have always used the storage containers to store food for later meals or for lunch at work but have be using them lately as meal prep tools.
Love marinating tofu, seitan or tempeh before cooking or grilling. The new grill pan( birthday gift in April) has been a great new toy as the taste impact of searing grill marks into tofu is great. Love the flavor and the texture I have gotten after marinating then grilling tofu and veggies before serving over a pile of grain or greens or in a bread as a sandwich.
Some years ago saw a chef grilling veggies in such a pan and assembling a great looking sandwich. Adding tofu or a dressing made from it will help me keep up the protein especially when eaten as a recovery meal{ sandwiches are a personal fave}

Just some general wandering thoughts - had to get out and get back to work.
